Case Study
Enhancing Hill Group’s Intranet for Improved Employee Collaboration
Hill Group, a leading construction company, sought to redesign and enrich its Intranet to better suit the company’s unique needs. The goal was to improve the look, functionality, and usability of the platform while introducing features that would enhance internal communication and project management.
Challenges
Outdated Intranet Design
The existing Intranet lacked modern design elements and was not user-friendly, making it difficult for employees to navigate and utilize.
Lack of Employee Directory
Hill Group needed an integrated employee directory to enable staff to easily search and connect with colleagues across different departments.
Project Search Functionality
The company required a robust search feature that would allow employees to find and access information about ongoing projects across various regions.
Solutions
Intranet Redesign
We redesigned the Intranet with a fresh, modern interface, enhancing both the visual appeal and user experience. The new design focused on ease of use, with intuitive navigation and a responsive layout.
Employee Directory Implementation
A comprehensive employee directory was developed and integrated into the Intranet. This feature allowed staff to search for and view profiles, fostering better communication and collaboration within the company.
Project Search Feature
We implemented database tables that enabled employees to search for projects by region. This functionality streamlined access to critical project information, helping teams stay informed and aligned.
Results
Improved User Experience
The redesigned Intranet received positive feedback from employees, who found it easier to navigate and more visually appealing.
Enhanced Collaboration
The new employee directory facilitated better communication across departments, leading to increased collaboration and efficiency.
Streamlined Project Management
The project search functionality allowed employees to quickly find and access relevant project information, improving overall project management and coordination.
This project demonstrates the impact of a well-designed and functional Intranet on enhancing internal communication and efficiency within a construction company.
